Description

Each player has thirteen hexagonal tiles, each of which has a unique arrangement of pointers to various edges. Tiles may be added to the playing area or moved in the direction of any of their pointers, possibly to stack on pieces of either colour which are then pinned. A player wins when the opponent's king (0-pointer) is captured.

Several changes to the original rules have been applied during Nestorgames production process:

- 'Holed' tiles: So now it's allowed to pick up tiles with just 1 free side as you can insert one finger into the tile's hole. Moreover, you can see through the hole what's underneath (so you know which the hidden tiles are).

- New king: Now the king is the tile with no pointers. You cannot move your tiles unless your king is on the board. The king can move 1 space in any direction. The king is captured by removing it, so this prevents it from escaping by 'climbing'.

- The queen: The 6-pointer tile is the queen. The most powerful tile for attacking, but the weakest for defending!

- 3 player expansion: A 3rd set of tiles (blue) allows a 3rd player to play Stax.
